Actually, the ad campaign for Exit has been the same for the past year (which you can see at the website www.SeekingTheExit.com).

So why did you title this thread "Questionable Ad Campaign" if it's your ad campaign (and which you evidently don't want questioned)?

A classic example of "Godwin's Law".

Americans like to spoof things. I am American. But, thanks for wishing that my show closes! Comments like those from chat board "theatre-lovers" like yourself are exactly what I talk about in the show. Perhaps you should see it. You may just be surprised. : )

Perhaps I should see it?

So you wrote a musical based on a film plot that was already in existence.... you decided to use songs which already belonged to another artist.... you got terrible reviews... so you wrote a show based on those terrible reviews and the rehearsal period.... you steal someone else's advertising campaign and call it "spoof".... and you couldn't even be bothered to come up with an original title for your show as you've just used Charles Spencer's words.  You even use Madonna's "Get into the groove" in your advert and photographs other people took of her, when you say the show isn't using her music!

It just seems a bit odd that every page of your website has "Copyright © Peter Michael Marino - 2013 All Rights Reserved" plastered on them, when you don't seem to mind using other people's work!

So someone writes a show that's a flop... then writes a show about having that flop.... then borrows another show's advertising idea?

Hmmm..... frankly I hope it closes before it opens!

Much as I adore Jennifer Saunders, but saying that the critics were "5 middle-aged men"... imagine if someone like Cameron had accused his critics of being "5 middle aged women"?
